Chapter 363 Eye Symbol
"Really?"
A familiar voice echoed in his ears. One he is very familiar with. With that, he stopped in his tracks and turn around. Then he saw a familiar figure that he hates, and the one that he needed to kill no matter what. Fein Bonifacio!
He saw Fein along with the other four guys rise from what it seems shadowy ground. When he saw Fein, Brick tried to feel his strength. But he can't feel anything at all. No degu energy, as Fein was just an ordinary human. But can that be?
Suddenly, uncontrollable rage rose from his heart. When there can only be one perfect organism in this world, He won't accept another one! Although Fein was the first one to become a perfect organism, which made him hate Fein further.
Fein looked at the monster in front of him with a frown. He feels a familiar presence but he couldn't put a finger on it. Not only that, his whole being and his every cell seem excited. 'Is it because of this monster? But what's special with this monster??'
He felt as if he knew the monster, but he didn't at the same time... This feeling made him uncomfortable, then he also felt as if the monster was his kin and they were the same.
Fein took a deep breath to calm down his nerves. Then he also noticed the monster staring at him with hatred and killing intent.
"Did I meet you once or something?"
"Of course, you won't remember me." Brick Norty said mockingly.
Seeing the monster open its mouth and speak words that he can't understand made him understand that the monster in front of him had a different vocal structure than humans.
'Well, it doesn't matter. This monster is just a mere A rank.' Fein was already proficient when it comes to sensing other creatures' strength. 'Well, let's just use a probe so I can understand this monster more clearly.'
So with that, Fein used his probe on the monster without a second thought. And what he saw made him silent... Then he looked at the monster in disbelief.
Fein froze completely and stopped moving, as he can't believe it after he saw the monster's identity.
"Fein?" Michael called out when he saw the Fein's sudden weird behavior. They could also feel that his friend's aura turn gloomy and depressing. "What happened?"
Yet Fein didn't answer. He just stood in his position with his head down... His demeanor completely changed in just a second, which confused Michael.
Gregory and Anthony also saw this. Gregory walked towards Fein with confusion and asked. "Fein? What's the problem.?"
But Fein still didn't answer. He only lifts his head and stared at the monster with guilt and sadness.
"What happened to him?" Anthony walked beside Gregory. "Why did he suddenly become emo?"
"I don't know. He's not responding, but it seems he understood something about the monster that made him like this. Just what could it be?" Michael stared at the monster and the piled-up corpses near it and his eyes became cold for a second before they returned to normal
"Guys, let me think first. I'm okay. I just need time." Fein said with coldness in his voice.
"Okay then. I don't know what happened, but you can leave it to us." Gregory nodded his head, but was really worried about Fein now. 'Just made him like this?'
He can't really understand what's going on. They just arrived and Fein suddenly became like this. And they didn't do anything yet. So this really confused him.
"Well, you've heard him." Anthony shrugged. Then he turned his gaze to the monster and says. "It might really be related to the monster. Just observe how it looks at Fein. If looks could kill, Fein had already died a thousand times."
"It really is." Michael nodded his head. Then he pointed at the corpses with his index finger and says. "Look at those corpses. They were dry like the ones we saw at the police station. It seems that it could really absorb the life force of creatures."
"If we came early, we might have prevented this." Gregory sighed.
"Stop... Don't blame our team. We already did our best to come here at the fastest speed. Although we have powers. We aren't god. We can't always save everyone." Anthony immediately stopped Gregory.
"Don't worry, I'm not being dramatic or something. I already experience a lot in life, so I know that." Gregory chuckled. f๐ง๐ฆ๐๐คe๐๐ฏo๐ท๐ฒฦ.c๐จ๐ข
"Who are they? They suddenly appeared from the ground. Are they degu users?"
"Look at those three guys. Wow, so handsome!"
"It seems they are really degu users. It seems that the incident had already reached the officials and sent these guys to save us?"
"How can they save us? Look at those white faces. I feel that they can't even break a stick." A man said mockingly.
A woman walked in front of the man and slapped him. The crisp sound of a slap echoed, which made the man embarrassed. "What was that for!?"
"Aren't you embarrassed by yourself? Are you stupid? Can someone that could pop out from nowhere be weak just like you say? Don't be ungrateful to the potential saviors." The woman quickly defended Fein and the group.
"Y-you!" The man reddened with shame. "You're just doing this because they are a little handsome!"
"No, I'm not. You're just jealous." The woman rolled her eyes at the man's shameful display. She really hates ungrateful people in general.

The degu users, on the other hand, had a different reaction as they knew something the ordinary people didn't.
"Are they the official investigators? They finally arrived!"
"I just hope that they can defeat this monster. Or else we're still fucked up."
"Don't worry. Official investigators aren't pushovers. They were trained with rich resources and carefully trained compared to the likes of us."
"But did you notice something? Look at their badge. They aren't from the Versace Organization that was responsible for this city. Though I'm certain they are also official investigators."
"Then who are they? Did the city call them for help or what?"
"Idiots! Look at the logo of their clothes.."
"Isn't it just an eye? So what?"
"Really stupid! what organization uses the eye as their symbol in our country? They also fought demons last year! They are fucking the Ranger's Eye in flesh!"
